Coffee sculpting has become the primary factor for many coffee lovers and practitioners, from utensils coffee machines to milk coffee beans to baristas. As the saying goes, "A good horse makes a good saddle". The flower jar is a key tool for making a good cup, and from time to time, there are friends who recommend affordable and easy-to-use flower jars, which are dazzling in the market.

Weight selection

The weight of the coffee flower jar determines the ease of swing frequency adjustment, inertia control, and occupational strain (those with large hands can be ignored). It is really not alarmist talk. Once one of my female cadets took a very heavy flower jar, saying that it had a strong texture and could not practice for a long time, but the hand became swollen the next day, causing damage to the wrists and joints for a long time, that is, strain.

Weight of EV1 copy: about 210g

Then it is recommended to choose a heavier or lighter vat?

I usually choose a lightweight flower jar which is generally more comfortable at about 250g, which makes it easier for you to control it at the beginning of the drawing, and you can easily control it. You can give a certain amount of foam at will and give any swinging frequency. The inertia of foam can also be freely controlled.

The heavy cylinder can be distinguished by the thick and thin stainless steel material of the cylinder body. Generally, the cylinder with thicker body is heavier, and I hate this type of cylinder every time.

Size selection

In the world, or on the market, there are three basic categories: 300ML, 600-750 MLPhone 1000ML, as well as mini and giant ones.

Why do we choose 600-750ML flower-drawing vat for flower-drawing?

First of all, the 300 ml flower jar is generally used to make small cups, less than 150. No matter how big it is, Chitu is tired, and the picture you want will not satisfy you. For example, in the WLAC final, we can often see the figure of 300ML's flower jar, which is used to make 90ML's Macchito cup, pushing 10 and 12 tulips, and that smug look is the jar of 300ML. Of course, you can also use 600ml's flower jar instead.

In addition, 300ML's flower jar can also be used to dispense milk, and there is no need to buy a pot with a belly of 350,300. 300ML's flower jar is small and has a high degree of foam fusion (evenly mixed and unified as a whole). Of course, when you send off, remember that the steam is not too big, such as Pegasus E61, the milk will tweet out of the vat and fly all over the sky.

Second, 600ML-700ML 's flower jar, generally used to make coffee "god" pull flowers, that is, very complex 10 20 leaves or wings, some students are very entangled must take 300ML's jar to pull 10 leaves, as a pure physics and mathematics actuarial department uncle I clearly tell you, do not delay the milk, 300ML, please put aside, do not think it delicate to choose a 300ML, for 600ML-700ml, easier to shape. This capacity pull cylinder is suitable for 80-400 cups. It's an all-take-all.

Mouth size and valgus

Speaking of mouth shape, big mouth, small mouth, sharp mouth, crane mouth …... There are too many mouth shapes of flower vats on the market.

Big mouth is suitable for: embossing, heart pushing, tulips, big leaves. Conventional patterns, can not do fine work, the mouth is too big.

Small mouth is suitable for: embossing, heart pushing, tulips, big leaves, small leaves. A small leaf refers to an element of a combinatorial diagram.

From the above comparison, I have abandoned the big mouth for a year.

When it comes to sharp mouth, there are not many jars of this type on the market, it doesn't matter whether the tip of the mouth is sharp or not, the key depends on the size.

EV1 duplicates the mouth shape real shot

Then talk about a key point: pull flower cylinder mouth valgus, valgus can make your ending very comfortable, important 3 times. It is very comfortable to make a combination or embossing.

Finally, the crane mouth is a god horse thing, that is, the shape of the mouth used by the Japanese MM to win the world championship, has become extinct, and no one is using it. At that time, the speed of her drawing was really frightening. Today, the bright spot is that the surface is very smooth, but the details are still much worse, compared with many domestic experts in the technical level.

Beginners choose a flower jar mainly for practice and familiarity, and a suitable one is helpful for beginners to practice quickly, so it is recommended to choose an ordinary one for beginners.
